It’s common sense to further alienate Muslims? It’s common sense to rip up all of our trade agreements? It’s common sense to say that getting rid of fraud and waste will save social security even though the numbers don’t nearly add up?
yes.
Interesting table in this link.
It shows how trump supporters’ positions generally differ from Cruz’ and Rubio’s.
As expected. Trump fans are much more pro gay marriage and pro abortion, which is where the republican party needed to be headed. Contrary to media narrative, they are not substantially more racist than a cruz or rubio supporter. Check it out

hillary has never veered right. she’s gone from center left to very left and back. she wants to represent the whole left. trump started at the extreme right and is now apparently adopting left wing policies, while still sort of holidng onto the far right. it’s confusing and results in people voting for who knows what. it’s not a matter of right and left. it’s a matter of trump pandering to every drooling idiot in the country, hoping that they all disregard the 80% of stuff they don’t agree with so that they can vote for some extreme 20% that they do. most righties probably don’t like protectionism nor do they want to see the economy get thrashed on purpose but they sure love racism.
The average person is of average intelligence.
FTFY

Is there any evidence that Trump is a racist? He has been in the public eye for fifty years and I don’t recall much chatter. Has anybody that has first hand knowledge come forward with examples? How about anyone from the Apprentice, his companies, or pageants? There must be some hard evidence if people like john legend would throw around the accusation, right? You would think the accusation of racism would be used as carefully as the accusation of rape. People feel pretty comfortable making the claim though.
^ The left likes to use scare tactics to bully people away from him. They want to be be able to say “if you vote trump, you are a racist” in an attempt to scare people into thinking they shouldnt vote for him. He isn’t a racist. The whole narrative is completely asinine. Makes me wish I could vote for him 1000 times
Fair enough. I suppose we just have very different ideas of what common sense is.
While I’m personally as atheist as can be, I fully support religious freedom and alienating a religion or race is purely unamerican. I also don’t see any possible way to justify getting rid of trade agreements, and pitching a social security plan that simply doesn’t work is a career politician move, and not being a career politician is why many Trump supporters support him in the first place.
it was moreso a joke about the right being generally much more racist than the left and liking any policy that is borderline racist. it’s likely that basically no right wing AFers are racist but they are fine voting alongside extreme racists. this is where nations get into trouble. voting with people you dont’ agree with on major issues. swap the word racist for misogynist and the point stands. there is proof that he is a misogynist. bottom line. he’s prejudiced against many groups. if you’re prejudiced against any group, it is not a good show of character and makes him untrustworthy. what else is he prejudiced that we don’t know about?
it’s a media c.o.n.-spiracy. Hopefully there are enough rational swing voters to see through this.
Correct, which is dumb as sh*t.
What proof is there that he is a misogynist? He had females leading real estate projects back in the 70s when it was unheard of. Look at how he treats his daughters. They are treated like gold. Calling a woman fat and ugly, like he did with rosie o donnell, doesnt mean he hates women.
Banning an entire religion from entering America gets pretty close to the definition. I guess you can argue that Muslims aren’t a race, but I’m thinking he means the brown ones and not the white convert from Germany (as there would be no way to screen him out).
The Today Show this morning was sickening. Most biased media reporting I have ever seen. They essentially said that no sane person could vote for trump because of his egging on of racial violence. The media is really starting to get worried. They hate him so much.
if you haven’t noticed, when trump looks to put a woman down, he focuses on her physical appearance. he doesn’t do this with men. this is a tell that he’s pathologically misogynist and sees women as not equal.
specifically, calling a professional who needs to pump her breasts disgusting is the epitome of misogyny. would you call urination disgusting? because for a pregnant woman who has chosen to breatfeed, which is her right, breastfeeding is more essential to life than urination.
he has written that you should never be with any woman who will not sign a pre-nup, not even ones that you are certian are good and love you for you. unless he’s writing the book just for himself and not to a mass audience, he’s basically saying that no woman is good enough to be trusted with your money, no matter how much of a chump you are.
just a few examples for you.
you don’t have to beat women all day to be a misogynist.
America has implemented immigration moratoriums on many groups of people in the past and our laws are written so that persecuted Christians have asylum priority. Our constitutional protections do not extend the World over. Are you arguing that Trump would not protect our Muslim Americans in uniform? I didn’t think so.
You’re losing it MLA. Trump doesn’t criticize the physical appearance of men? Never? You’re destroying your own ethos. Do you think this board is not a well read group? What’s your angle? Why the hate and rhetoric?
Racism does extend the World over. You are getting confused between policy and the motivation driving the policy.
